Are you sleepless these days?

You can believe me, that every time I have a goal, something on my heart to write a book about, new music and lyrics—or even messages for "A Miracle Every Day"—they are there again: sleepless nights. 💤

I know exactly how frustrating it is when you're completely beside yourself and feel like you can't work clearly, let alone be creative. Maybe you're a mom and you're thinking, "How am I going to be there for my kids today?" or you have to give a presentation at work, but there's an uncontrollable mess in your head because of your sleeplessness.

Then, this message: Find peace in your turmoil.

"How is that supposed to work?" you're probably wondering! David tells us in the Psalms how he did it. He used his sleeplessness as an opportunity for time with God.

"I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night. Because you are my helper, I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely.” (Psalm 63:6-8, NLT)

Here are three important keys when you can't sleep:

1. Think about God: Let your mind wander to Him only.

2. Remember what He has done: Recall how He has always helped you and will help you again tomorrow, despite tiredness.

3. Praise him! Yes, exactly! In your sleeplessness. It helps you cling to him—see how He will still use you and carry you through the next day!

Rest is not perfect sleep. Rest is seeking God's nearness despite all circumstances. ❤️

Even when you're sleepless in your bed. Then go through these three steps and simply ask God in that moment, "What do you want to show me?"

And be sure, God has GOOD things planned for you!

You are a miracle!
